That’s the first time I ever saw an offer for the Demoiselles, I shan’t be biting though.  Overall I find the prices comme-ci comme-ça, if not completely outrageous, but they are not where I need to energise me to use my plastic:  I still have this ‘old-fashioned’ notion that good 1ers should cost 40-60 SFr, and decent GC’s more like 70-120 SFr, hence, I’ll keep buying older vintages where still available, like here, or here!

Agree? Disagree? Anything you'd like to add?

    I wonder who buys these wines?-plenty of 99s still available at original prices last time I looked. I’m a huge fan but they are really made for extensive ageing, which explains why their image among wine fans is so at odds with the general high critical acclaim.
    The good news is that I acquired several old Cortons and Volnays from here today.

      Nothing to argue with there…
